The pieces of me that I keep to myself are the only things I own.
And I'm grateful to have people around me to share those things with.
But in all honesty nobody knows me like my pen.
It is my protector, defender, and friend.
But its not my truth.
Responsibility is the perception of my own faults.
Naïve.
The word that separates the little girls from the grown women.
It's my right of passage to be a fool for one.
But in my own journey I've had two.
It's all relative. But that doesn't negate honesty.
Investment and flawed vision is why I stayed.
So why'd you leave?
Privacy.
Don't answer.
What's understood, don't need to be explained.
Your truth will never set me free because its man made.
Yet there is something so powerful in forgiving.
It's the last thing I gave for us, everything after... is for me.
So can I be honest?
In the mist of confrontation everything starts with a question.
But it's hell when you hold all my answers.
Your response marks the movement of my feet.
When you agree I walk, but when you don't I stand still.
The bondage of your emotions keeps me in the game
No matter how long I ride the bench.
But God can break chains.
This time I choose to walk away.
With my hands in the air, I no longer submit to us.
Instead, I surrender to the will of God over my life.
